Description



Raw Spitt ‘Raw Spitt’

Ancora (1972) Brazilian pressing

Hard to find independent soul/funk. Lovely copy.

Raw Spitt was the pseudonym used by singer Charlie Whitehead on the Swamp Dogg-produced 1970 album Raw Spitt, as well as on the 1971 non-LP single "Songs to Sing"/"That Ain't My Wife." As Swamp Dogg also co-wrote or wholly wrote most of the songs released under the Raw Spitt name, while Whitehead only contributed to the composition of one of those songs, Raw Spitt sometimes seemed at least as much of a Swamp Dogg project as a Whitehead one. The Raw Spitt LP, like much of Swamp Dogg's material from the period, is likeable gritty early-'70s soul with dashes of funk and rock, as well as some reflective and humorous lyrics about African-American identity, racial/social injustice, and sex.

 

Condition: Record VG+    Sleeve VG+

Records are graded in accordance with Record Collector's Grading System as follows:

EXCELLENT (EX): The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

VERY GOOD (VG): The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD (G): The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration.
